*** Chapter 4 Teaser ***
Elena followed Edward, who was half-carrying Bella, and a chattering Alice down to the plane’s cabin. She glanced at Bella, swaying in his arms, deep, dark circles prominent under her eyes. Even though she looked like she could drop dead at any moment, her bony, white knuckles clung to him. It was as if she was afraid that he would disappear if she didn’t hold on tight enough.
As they stood in line waiting on the jet bridge, the scientist within Elena was dying to test Marcus’ partial mind shielding technique. She looked behind her, calculating her escape in case she’d failed. She started softly at first.
Edward.
Nothing.
She tried again a little louder.
Edward.
Edward kissed Bella's forehead, oblivious to Elena's mental call.
As they walked to their seats, Elena decided to try one last time before the flight attendants started loading the economy class passengers.
Edward!
Edward didn’t give any indication of hearing her mental call.
Elena, grinning, settled into the seat across the aisle from them. She was proud that Marcus had taught her well and that her lotion seemed to be working. Just as she finished buckling herself in, she lifted her head and met a pair of light amber eyes.
“There is no way you are going to get away with it.”
Oh shit! Alice. Elena gulped.
